Kendis LaTroy Chambers, 28, was arrested later that evening and charged with murder in the shooting death of Timothy Keith Hunter, 42.

Hunter had likely known Chambers since at least 2006, when he married Chambers's mother, according to Mobile County probate court records.

According to police, Chambers shot Hunter during an argument at the home they shared on the 3800 block of Dwight Court, near Sollie Road. Officers responded to the house at 8:25 a.m., said MPD spokeswoman Ashley Rains.

Hunter was transported to a local hospital suffering from a gunshot wound to his abdomen. He later died of his injury.

Records from Mobile County Metro Jail show Chambers was last booked in 2009 on charges of carrying a pistol without a permit and third-degree receiving stolen property. Additional information on the charges was not immediately available.
